Sara was great. She had the unfortunate experience of showing up to a kennel with a potty accident but she took the time to both clean it and my dog up. She had a great time with my dog and sent lots of great pictures. I will use her again.

Just Great ! Couldn't be happier. Xanna loves Sara . She was very good at keeping us updated, sent pictures and was very responsive. Xanna was very sad when she left. I can tell she had a great time having Sara at home. She is very caring and knowledgeable person. Our home was in perfect order when we came back. I would HIGHLY recommend Sara and will definitely use her again. So grateful to have found her ...

Loving & Experienced Pet Caregiver

After growing up in a family doing Doberman Pinscher rescue, and working at a small business doggy daycare for the past 5 years, I'm at an age where I'm ready to do my own thing. My name is Sara, and I am part dog.Over my years in the daycare, I have met almost every type of dog, and certainly every temperament. I live and breathe dogs, and I truly love each and every one. With having worked closely with my mother at her rescue since I was a teen, my special interests have become elderly and differently-abled dogs, I can't help but dote on them, and am completely comfortable with routine medical care such as diabetes care, compromised skin care, and complex medication regimens. I also excel in caring for, and earning the trust of, animals suffering from severe anxiety (some of us with rescue pets are familiar with this hurdle), and am willing to provide 24/7 care for separation anxiety if requested. I'll be sitting exclusively, so my availability is 100% open to suit your needs.I love a bouncy, playful, on the go pup that's into walkies and playdates....but I am just as happy giving a couch potato all the snuggles they require, and making sure that tummy stays rubbed. Every dog has their own way to shine in my universe, and each one seems to work a type of magic on me.I also offer basic dog grooming services such as bath, brush, clip nails, clean inside ears and brush teeth- we will discuss price based on dog size, coat quality, and services. One reason I decided to go into "private practice" is I wanted to build up a clientele I could get attached to, and stay close to. While we had a handful of "regulars", too often at daycare I'd meet a great dog, but they would never come by to play again- I can't do that, it hurts my heart! I have every intention of not only making your dog love me...but you as well!Though I grew up with dogs, I am currently the proud mama of 2 kitty-cats, and would be more than happy to care for yours as well. Provided detailed care instructions, I am also willing to care for other pets such as lizards, birds, rats, snakes, etc.I can't wait to meet you and your pets!

What Sara would like to know about your dog

I want to know as much as you can provide! What are her favorite ways to play? Some enjoy peekaboo and other calmer games, while others are more into wrestling- yep, I get down on the floor and everything! Is there a dog park you frequent that he has friends at? We can make plans for a field trip next time. They are hopelessly devoted to chicken nuggets? Well...we might be able to stop by Mcdonalds, provided they finish their dinner.(This goes double for other pets- if your gecko is most at home on a shoulder, I can certainly arrange accommodations for that.)I love all dogs, large and small, but at heart I am definitely a big breed type of girl. Bernese Mountain Dogs and Giant Goldendoodles are some of my favorites.
